There were four players who debuted in Season 6 and went onto becoming All-Stars: Yu Feng, Xu Bin, Lu Boyuan, and Jiang Botao. Apart from Yu Feng, the other three were not core members of their respective team. If even these All-Stars were like so, then the other rookies of that generation were even less important.
The Season 4 rookies were nicknamed the Golden Generation. On the other hand, these Season 6 rookies were nicknamed the "Helper Squad" because of these coincidental happenings. The name pointed at how the Season 6 rookies all held support roles in their respective teams.
The title was just for fun. No one would actually take these words to heart. But still, now that Yu Feng had become the core of Hundred Blossoms, the name "Helper Squad" no longer had the same impact as before. The Season 6 players all joked that Yu Feng had let them down.
They were joking, of course.
Even if Yu Feng became his team's core player, so what?
